Bulevari

Katarina sa Dorcola
bila je najlepsa u gradu tih godina
Katarina se igrala
nasim srcima k'o kutijom domina

Katarina je birala
jednom izabrala pogresnog coveka
velika bolest malog imena
poklon onih opakih navika

Ref.
Bulevari, na kraju grada
bulevari, dajte sklonista
bulevari, na kraju grada
bulevari, dajte snage
dajte sklonista

Mali Ivan ima mali stan
u starom delu Novog Beograda
mali Ivan ima divan plan
al' na svakom putu hiljadu ograda

Avioni, kola, brodovi
nijedna zena nije videla njegov sjaj
cudna ljubav, cudni plodovi
niko stvarno ne zasluzuje takav kraj

Ref.

Bulevarima sumraka
gde tamne senke kriju poglede ocaja
bulevarima uzdaha
poslednja borba je i poslednja predaja

Sudbina se uvek igrala
s' nekim citav zivot, s' nekim za jednu noc
velika bolest malog imena
niko stvarno ne zasluzuje takav bol

Ref.
